  • 2868f89fc   The namespaces compatibility list doc ... Browse Code »

    People discuss how the namespaces are working/going-to-work together.

    Ted Ts'o proposed to create some document that describes what problems user
    may have when he/she creates some new namespace, but keeps others shared.
    I liked this idea, so here's the initial version of such a document with
    the problems I currently have in mind and can describe somewhat audibly -
    the "namespaces compatibility list".

    The Documentation/namespaces/ directory is about to contain more docs about
    the namespaces stuff.

    Thanks to Cedirc for notes and spell checks on the doc, to Daniel for
    additional info about IPC and User namespaces interaction and to Randy, who
    alluded me to using a spell checker before sending the documentation :)

  • 8802f616f   [NetLabel]: documentation ... Browse Code »

    Documentation for the NetLabel system, this includes a basic overview
    of how NetLabel works, how LSM developers can integrate it into their
    favorite LSM, as well as documentation on the CIPSO related sysctl
    variables. Also, due to the difficulty of finding expired IETF
    drafts, I am including the IETF CIPSO draft that is the basis of the
    NetLabel CIPSO implementation.

  • b089f4a68   [PATCH] kdump: Documentation for Kdump ... Browse Code »

    This patch contains the documentation for the kexec based crash dump tool.

    Quick kdump-howto
    ================================================================

    1) Download and build kexec-tools.

    2) Download and build the latest kexec/kdump (-mm) kernel patchset.
    Two kernels need to be built in order to get this feature working.

    A) First kernel:
    a) Enable "kexec system call" feature:
    CONFIG_KEXEC=y
    b) Physical load address (use default):
    CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x100000
    c) Enable "sysfs file system support":
    CONFIG_SYSFS=y
    d) Boot into first kernel with the command line parameter "crashkernel=Y@X":
    For example: "crashkernel=64M@16M".

    B) Second kernel:
    a) Enable "kernel crash dumps" feature:
    CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y
    b) Physical load addreess, use same load address as X in "crashkernel"
    kernel parameter in d) above, e.g., 16 MB or 0x1000000.
    CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START=0x1000000
    c) Enable "/proc/vmcore support" (Optional, in Pseudo filesystems).
    CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE=y

    3) Boot into the first kernel.

    4) Load the second kernel to be booted using:

    kexec -p --crash-dump --args-linux --append="root=
    maxcpus=1 init 1"

    5) System reboots into the second kernel when a panic occurs. A module can be
    written to force the panic, for testing purposes.

    6) See Documentation/kdump.txt for how to read the first kernel's
    memory image and how to analyze it.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
